The Old Post Office

The Old Post Office, a characterful, semi-detached cottage is nestled in the quiet village of Holcombe, tucked away in the Devon countryside. This two-bed property is a short stroll down to the sea and within easy reach of attractions along the south Devon coast making it an ideal base for families or couples.

The cottage that has been lovingly restored by its owners over the past 25 years and boasts a wonderful gas-fired ''log burner'' to keep your toes toasty after a long day of seaside adventures. Enter through the front stable door - find an array of amenities - a welcoming open plan living-room with a TV, for added entertainment, the kitchen to prepare some delicious evening meals, and a dining area to celebrate a superb holiday.

As the evening draws to a close - climb the staircase to the first bedroom featuring a bunk bed (suitable for children) and has views out to the garden and surrounding countryside. The master bedroom has a well-presented double bed and period furniture.

The shower room is located between the bedrooms and has a powerful shower, perfect for rinsing off after a muddy walk. Outside, enjoy a morning cup of coffee, or evening glass of wine at the table, or simply relax on a sun lounger and appreciate the serene, rural surroundings.

If you don’t fancy cooking, just up the road is the village pub The Castle Inn, worth a visit for some tasty pub grub. As the road through Holcombe is on a slight gradient, the uphill walk to the pub can be a challenge although much easier coming home!

Explore the charming coastal towns of Teignmouth and Dawlish, just a short distance from The Old Post Office. Take a leisurely stroll along the Teignmouth Grand Pier, feel the sand between your toes at Teignmouth Beach, and indulge in some delicious local cuisine at Finn McCools.
